Tag Archives: zipper pouches

Today, I am so excited to be hosting a give away for an independent fabric designer, Natasha K. @ Jumping Birds. I met Natasha after using her fabulous whale fabric for a chair bag order. I loved that fabric, so when she reached out and asked if I would join with her on a Back to School give away using her new line “School Days”, of course I jumped at the opportunity.

I went straight over to Spoonflower and checked the line out, decided it was perfect for the Triple Zipper pouches that I wanted to make my son’s Kindergarten teachers to say thank you. I purchased 5 half yards. This week I went to work, matching the fabrics, choosing the zippers and started on those pouches. I love how they turned out – I am sure the teachers will too (even though they are a little late :-))

The first one:

Main Pocket and backing fabric: Inspirational Pencils

Small Pocket 1 fabric: Polka Apples,

Small Pocket 2 fabric: Diag. Stripes

Lining fabric: ABC’s

The Second Pouch:

Main Pocket and backing fabric: School Buses (not included in the giveaway but is available on Spoonflower.com)

We have two giveaways today, all you have to do is leave a comment before 12pm EST Thursday. I will randomly pick two winners and announce next Friday. If you are a follower, you get a second entry, just let me know how you follow.

With the crazy week last week, I totally missed the end of month goal checkin at the “A lovely year of finishes”. I did get 3 projects finished; a coin purse, a pillow for a swap and the hexagon trivet.

I did not get the time to finish my two big projects. The two baby quilts. These will be my goals for July. I think both of these are doable (at least at a minimum the tops) since I am having 1.5 weeks vacation.
